The Eleventh Frequency, Solar Sons and Charlie Overbey & the Broken Arrows at The Echo

Charlie Overbey and the Broken Arrows
It was a Reprising of Echo Park Rising -- some of the bands that played Echo Park Rising were playing on this Monday night. Both The Echo and The Echoplex stages were used for the night.

The Eleventh Frequency calls themselves a post-punk band. Their music rises above the horizon and shines a light on the audience.

Solar Sons came up next for me. Their funk fashion fuses perfectly with their funk music. A couple friends (I'm assuming they were friends) were filming the set. One was so into the rhythm I couldn't help but wonder if she was actually filming anything that would be of any use to the band.

The final band of the night for me was Charlie Overbey and the Broken Arrows, country music to the core with influence from Johnny Cash. This band is made up of older gentlemen who show more energy on stage than those half their age. I couldn't help but think this band would be perfect for Bloomfest, well, when Bloomfest had live bands.
